  No 10’s sticky note plan to avoid awkward e-mails

  DEBORAH SUMMERS, Political Correspondent

  
  

  DOWNING Street has come up with a strategy to curb embarrassing internal e-mails by replacing electronic messages with sticky notes.
  
  Staff at No 10 are to be encouraged to leave messages for each other on Post-it style notes that can be torn up and destroyed without a trace.

  
  

  The move follows a barrage of highly embarrassing electronic mails that came back to haunt the government.

  
  

  The idea is thought to have been borrowed from the White House.
